These grades come from the system Ofsted replaced in November 2025. They stay on record until the school’s next inspection, when it gets a report card instead. More about the old grades.

Next inspection: around November 2026

The last inspection was in May 2024. Schools graded requires improvement were normally inspected again within 30 months. That’s within the next six months.

An estimate, not an Ofsted date. Ofsted doesn’t publish its schedule and gives schools about a day’s notice. The law says the next inspection must be by August 2029 at the latest, and Ofsted can visit sooner if it has concerns.
